Military trailer turned into a dump trailer?

Is that the m105 you were talking about? Also if you come up with an inexpensive brake solution share it please. Mine has air over hydraulic so no brakes yet.

I don't know about inexpensive but I bought a 7k axle and tires to swap out the old. Gets new tires that I can get replacements, an axle I can find parts for and electric brakes. I know 7k is higher than the trailer is rated for but the weight rating for this thing is low in my opinion. Plus I read about some conversions using 5k or a 6k axle that bent.
